These helicopters are purpose-built military aircraft that have the ability to decimate the enemy’s fighting capabilities by going after troop concentrations, armored vehicles, and even maritime vessels. Most of them also carry air-to-air weapons that can be fired at airborne threats. If deployed effectively, attack helicopters can turn the tide of war and help secure victory on the battlefield.</p><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/8c4PRBqD2_g" title="Top 10 Most Feared Helicopters On The Battlefield" width="480"></iframe></div><p style="text-align: justify;">Here are, you have to know, the top 10 most feared helicopters on the battlefield.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"></p><ol><li>Kamov Ka-52 Alligator</li><li>Boeing AH-64 Apache</li><li>OH-58 Kiowa</li><li>Mil Mi-24 Hind</li><li>AH-2 Rooivalk</li><li>Agusta AW129 Mangusta</li><li>CAIC Z-10</li><li>Eurocopter Tiger</li><li>Mi-28 Havoc</li><li>Bell AH-1Z Viper</li></ol><div><i style="text-align: justify;"><span style="background-color: #f9f9f9;">Credit Video: </span><span style="background-color: #f9f9f9;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCajKgpxKwbuhR2PkI7e-WUA" target="_blank">US Military Power</a></span></i></div><p></p>Stephanie Cornejohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11275581350007174597noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988023966553136001.post-69182271073654939662022-08-11T07:08:00.002-07:002022-08-11T07:08:08.393-07:00Aggressive F-16 Viper Demo at ATOH 22 [4K]<p style="text-align: justify;">The Air Combat Command F-16 Viper Demonstration Team at Shaw Air Force Base, S.C., performs precision aerial maneuvers to demonstrate the unique capabilities of one of the Air Force's premier multi-role fighters — the F-16 Fighting Falcon. </p><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="270" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zqkR1irjYuc" title="Aggressive F-16 Viper Demo at ATOH 22 [4K]" width="480"></iframe></div><p style="text-align: justify;">The Pacific Air Force's F-16 Viper Demonstration Team Preforms over Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska, during Arctic Thunder Open House.</p><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><span style="background-color: #f9f9f9;">Credit Video: </span><span style="background-color: #f9f9f9;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCajKgpxKwbuhR2PkI7e-WUA" target="_blank">US Military Power</a></span></i></div>Stephanie Cornejohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11275581350007174597noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1988023966553136001.post-26062394883694561312022-08-01T06:25:00.006-07:002022-08-01T06:25:56.916-07:00U-2 Dragon Lady: The Super Mysterious Spy Plane in the World<p style="text-align: justify;">The Lockheed U-2 first took to the skies in 1955, nicknamed the “Dragon Lady,” was like nothing that had flown before it and still flown today, due to extensive modifications.
